"Look, these are Conan's glasses.”Guang Yan handed the glasses in his hand to Yan Ze." We might be able to find Conan and the others with this."”
"Are you going alone?" Yan Ze looked at Guang Yan and said indifferently.
"Yes, we can't be sure if we can find Conan and the others. After all, Haihara-san and the others are girls. It wouldn't be good if there were any dangers on the way. So Yanze, you have to follow Haihara-san and the others and protect them well.”Guang Yan said solemnly.
Yan Ze looked at him and nodded." I understand."”
Then, Mitsuhiko walked deeper into the corridor without looking back.
Xiao Ai seemed to have found something as well.
There were 15 people who died in the fire. The fire was so fierce that their bones were burned to ashes. The identification of their bodies could only be determined by the belongings they had with them. Only one of them was missing. He must have used the fire to switch himself with someone else. Xiao Ai thought as she read the report in the newspaper.
"Haihara-san, Mitsuhiko and Yanze seem to have disappeared.”Bu Mei looked around and couldn't see Mitsuhiko and Yan Ze. She couldn't help but ask worriedly.
Xiao Ai and Bu Mei walked out of the room and saw Yan Ze standing at the end of the corridor.
"Yanze, where's Tarani-san?" Xiao Ai asked.
Yan Ze heard Xiao Ai's voice and turned to look at them. He lowered his head and thought," He said he was going to find Conan."”
"This idiot, which direction did he go?”Xiao Ai asked.
" That…" Yan Ze pointed in the direction of the entrance to the tower where the fire had been lost.
They came to the tower.
" Light…" Bu Mei was about to call out Mitsuhiko's name, but Xiao Ai stopped her.
"This door should be sealed. This might be a trap. Yanze, are you sure Guang Yan came here?”Xiao Ai looked at the wide-open door of the tower and turned to ask Yan Ze behind her. In the end, she saw him drinking the milk happily. "You…Where did you get this milk?"
When Yan Ze heard Xiao Ai's words, he looked at her blankly. His other hand reached behind him. When he took it out again, there was a carton of milk in his hand. He handed it to Xiao Ai." Do you want it?"”
Although Xiao Ai was curious about where he got the milk, it was not the time to think about it. She rubbed her forehead helplessly." I'll go to the tower to check on the situation first. You and Bu Mei can hide in the bushes first."”
Hearing Xiao Ai's words, Yan Ze paused." I'll go with you."”
Bu Mei heard Yan Ze's words and looked at Xiao Ai. It was obvious that she wanted to go in together.
Xiao Ai looked at the two of them and said to Bu Mei," If you count to 300 and I still haven't come out, then you and Yanze should quickly escape." As long as they could escape to the road in the forest, they might be lucky enough to be rescued.”She looked at Yan Ze, who still wanted to say something." Although I don't know where you got this milk from, if you still want to drink it in the future, protect Bu Mei well."”Yan Ze looked at the milk in his hand, weighed it, and nodded. Xiao Ai looked at Yan Ze's reaction and nodded in satisfaction. She looked at Bu Mei and said," You should work harder, Bu Mei. You should still want to give those bread to Conan, right?"”
Ayumi hugged the bread tightly and nodded.
After Xiao Ai went in, Bu Mei and Yan Ze followed Xiao Ai's instructions and hid in the bushes." 1, 2, 3, 4, 5…83, 84, 85…150…200…299, 300." Bu Mei looked at the tower door after counting, but Xiao Ai still did not come out. She looked at Yanze beside her." Yanze, I've finished counting, but Haihara-san hasn't come out yet. What should I do?"”Bu Mei looked like she was about to cry.
Yan Ze looked at the door and stood up." Let's go in."”
" Okay." Bu Mei followed Yan Ze into the tower.
As he walked, Yan Ze suddenly stopped and looked behind him.
"Yanze, what's wrong?" Bu Mei looked at Yan Ze, then followed her gaze to look behind her. However, it was pitch-black behind her. There was nothing.
Yan Ze looked at Bu Mei and suddenly pulled her into a room. He answered Bu Mei's question," Someone is following us."”After entering the room, Yan Ze closed the door and locked it.
"Could it be Haihara-san?" As Ayumi was speaking, she heard the sound of someone pulling the door handle from behind the door. Ayumi happily said," It's Haihara-san."”She was about to open the door when Yan Ze stopped her.
"It's not her." As he spoke, a violent knocking sound came from outside the door.
"Yanze, what should we do?" Bu Mei looked at the door that was about to be pushed open in horror, not knowing what to do.
" Bang, bang, bang!" The door was pushed open, and a person holding an iron rod rushed in. He looked around, but there was no one in the room. He walked to the wall and turned a mechanism. The wall spun open, and an entrance appeared. He looked inside.
On the other side of the wall, Xiao Ai covered Bu Mei's mouth and hid with Yan Ze against the wall. Xiao Ai threw something outside, making a noise and luring the person out. The wall returned to its original state. The man looked around and walked away.
The wall opened a little. Bu Mei looked out and turned to Xiao Ai." He seems to have left."”
"Hey, you two, why didn't you listen to me? Didn't I tell you to escape? This time, it was because I happened to hide in this secret door that I saved the two of you. Otherwise, the two of you would have been killed long ago.”Xiao Ai said angrily to Bu Mei and Yan Ze.
"But, knowing that everyone might be in danger, how could we just run away like this?”Bu Mei looked at Xiao Ai with tears in her eyes.
"I promised Mitsuhiko that I would protect you.”Yan Ze looked at Xiao Ai and said.
"Seriously, I really lost to the two of you. Alright, hurry up and wipe your tears. It's time to find everyone.”Xiao Ai said as she walked forward.
Bu Mei wiped her tears and followed.
There was a staircase leading down ahead. Xiao Ai led the way, Bu Mei followed, and finally Yan Ze.
"Where is Guangyan?" Bu Mei asked.
"I don't know. If he came here, he should have been captured by that person just now.”Xiao Ai replied as she climbed down.
"What?" Bu Mei said in disbelief.
After the three of them came down, they looked around." I can't find Conan and the others," Ayumi said. She looked around and suddenly saw a person sitting against the wall not far away. "Look, there's someone there."
"Hmm?" Xiao Ai looked over.
"Look, it's over there." Bu Mei said as she ran over. However, when he walked in and saw,"Ah! It's a skeleton." As soon as Bu Mei finished speaking, the skeleton fell in her direction, scaring her into retreating.
Xiao Ai walked to the skeleton and said," It's already turned into white bones, which means it's been a long time." Also, judging from the dust on it, it shouldn't have been here for long. It seemed that the person who carved those words on the stairs was this person. I think Conan Edogawa must have discovered this place and moved it here.”Xiao Ai thought of the words carved on the stone steps of the secret chamber and analyzed.
"But who could this person be?”Bu Mei hid behind Yan Ze and asked.
Xiao Ai shone the light on the skeleton and was stunned. Compared to the other parts of the skeleton, the bones in the legs seemed thinner, and almost all of the teeth had fallen out. From the hair, it looked like a woman. Could it be that the person who switched identities with her was the murderer? As she was thinking, Yan Ze suddenly moved to Xiao Ai's side and shielded Xiao Ai and Bu Mei behind him.
Xiao Ai looked at Yan Ze's actions and asked," What's wrong?”
Yan Ze stared into the darkness and said," Someone's coming."”
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard an old voice say,"Three children, what's wrong with you? I heard a noise, so I came here to take a look. Where's your other child?”A person walked out from the darkness. It was Lady Wang.
Bu Mei stood up and was about to say something when Yan Ze blocked her. Xiao Ai pulled her along and ran forward, with Yan Ze following closely behind.
"Haihara-san? Wait, if we don't bring the old granny with us, we'll definitely be attacked by that person.”Bu Mei said as she ran with Xiao Ai.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Actually, that person is the murderer who wanted to attack you and Yanze just now.”Xiao Ai shouted at Bu Mei.
"Sigh!" Bu Mei said in disbelief.
"Judging from the leg bones of the corpse, it should have been a long time since it walked. Judging from the gender and age, it should be the corpse of the First Madam here.”Xiao Ai explained as she ran.
"Then, who was that person just now?" Bu Mei asked in surprise.
" She killed Lady Wang to replace her identity. She changed her face to look exactly the same. When it came to the details, she pretended that she had a bad memory. She killed people on the day of the fire. In the end, she realized that she could not deceive her biological daughter, so she set fire to kill people. As long as they knew about this underground passage, no matter who it was, they could set fire to it and secretly escape without attracting attention. It was not impossible for them to come back after plastic surgery. The murderer's goal was probably the treasure of this castle.”Xiao Ai and Bu Mei ran along the tunnel and climbed out of the stairs. The exit of the secret tunnel was the hall of the castle.
When the two of them caught their breath, they realized that Yanze had not come up yet. He couldn't help but nervously look at the tunnel exit. First Madam was hitting Yan Ze with an iron rod.
"Yanze!" Bu Mei exclaimed. Xiao Ai also looked down nervously, but there was nothing she could do. However, just as the iron rod was about to hit Yan Ze, Yan Ze reached out and caught the iron rod that was swinging at her. "Damn brat." Lady Wang tried to pull the iron bar back from Yanze's hand, but no matter how hard she tried, it was useless." Let go, you hateful brat."”she shouted.
Yan Ze listened to Lady Wang's words and looked at the iron rod in his hand. Then, he obediently let go. However, as Lady Wang was still pulling her back forcefully, she fell backward as soon as Yan Ze let go.
